Introduction
After long time, I am using Ubuntu 12.04.3 for a weeks time. Was stuck in different OS and back to Ubuntu and using Kernel 3.10 optimized for i7
Kernel 3.11
Hearing some driver improvements for open source radeon driver. Could not test it as I dont own AMD Radeon card anymore. But here I have built the kernel for someone to give it a try
For more changes about kernel 3.11 see here
I based my kernel compilation based on my earlier article with some modifications
Here is the script I used as a text file
Here are the binaries for testing
Here is the SHA256SUMS of the above

The script is self explanatory (and boring to explain)

The script was not uploaded, so I reuploaded it
ReplyDeleteHi! Thank you so much for answering my request.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately I couldn't put the graphics to work, so I'm back to 3.8. Even with the proprietary drivers Catalyst 13.8 beta it doesn't work, since it only has support to kernel 3.10. It manages to go into the log in screen but then the screen just goes black with the arrow of mouse (moving)
If I follow your script making the "obvious" modification for the 3.10 kernel, would I be able to compile the 3.* kernel or is it trickier than that? I've never compiled a kernel myself, so I'm bit worried that I mess it up.
I am using Kernel 3.10.11, I will upload its script and its binaries (I compiled with -march=native and I have i7 920, so it should work with later i7 processors)
DeleteIt is simple, you can try, even if it fails you wont get the binary to install. We feel scared until we get our feet wet with coding/building
Try it, it will be fun
Follow the script as follows, copy each line, paste it and execute it, leave those lines starting with hash symbol #
DeleteOnce you are done with a single line in the script, proceed to the next line, this way you can execute it with confidence

hi, thanks for posting this guide/script. I followed step by step (3.11) but after some compiling i get the following error. Perhaps you know what i'm doing wrong? TIA:

I will try to check, it could vary due to the kernel configuration you have chosen
